Best kept secret in the sparkling wine world. If you like your champagne or sparkling that is not excessively dry and has a nice fruit flavor then the Elliston sparkling is the best around. And it is very nicely priced compared to other sparkling wines.....best price/value wine you can find.. We have been drinking their sparkling for many years and thoroughly enjoy them.
Can’t beat this Cab for the price !!
Elliston Chardonnay 2016, I absolutely love this wine. The surprise is I have never had a Chardonnay from anywhere that I have liked let alone love! I love red wine. I received a bottle as a gift from my son and future daughter who happen to be getting married at Elliston next year and just opened the bottle. Absolutely lovely. I agree it tastes like it looks beautiful, bright, crisp and fruity. We’ll be by in the next couple of weeks for wine tasting and to pick up a bottle or two! Well done Elliston.
I have been drinking this champagne for many years and I don’t get tire. I celebrate most holiday with it i.e, Christmas and new year’s . Now I am adding the Sparkling Rose to my list. Glorious.
Great rose. Love it. It is my favorite. Thanks Elliston.
I’m not a fan of champagne but this champagne tastes great! I add a splash of orange juice and enjoy a mimosa at home. I will continue ordering this.
This champagne is so smooth. It has a nice fruity favor without over sweetness or harsh dryness. The alcohol is deceptively present. You can feel that blissful buzz after a glass or two. The only drawback is it’s hard to stop drinking it once you open the bottle.
Both were excellent. Light and very fruit forward. Will DEFINITELY
buy again. Nice to have such a good winery so close to Fremont.
Crisp and delicious. Unlike some sparkling wines we have tried it does not seem to cause headaches. It’s perfect for special occasions but it is priced reasonably, Overall, a great choice that compliments a celebration or an everyday meal.
Great wines! Would highly recommend.
I have enjoyed Elliston 2014 Petit Syrah and many of their other wines with my friends in the gardens of Elliston's estate. The Syrah has a nice balance of dark fruit with a small peppery finish on the tongue has is great with both heavy meals like pizza and meats but also nice with just cheese and crackers. This wine is nicely priced that we each brought home our own bottles to enjoy at home. Stacy, the wonderful woman who has made our visits to the winery very enjoyable each time we have gone and shares her knowledge of their different blends of wine. She has never stared us wrong! I enjoy my glass in the evening relaxing while watching a TV show and unwinding after a day at work. I am looking forward to many more tastings and get-togethers with friends in the gardens this spring. During these Covid restricted times, it is wonderful to find a place where we can be spaced safely away from others and still enjoy the beautiful outside gardens with wonderful wine.
